AMS 3819-approved pre-saturated wipes for wipe-on

C86: Our pre-saturated aeronautical-grade wipes are ideal for wipe-on applications requiring a ready-to-use solution. They are supplied saturated with various solvents, including Diestone DLS: the standard reference in the aerospace industry.

AMS 3819-approved dry wipes for wipe-off

Quiltec : A dry wipe renowned for its robustness and low linting. Double thickness for superior absorption of solvents and paints. Laser-sealed edges (no fibres/particles), manufactured and usable in class 10 cleanrooms. Highly resistant to chemicals and abrasion, washable by soaking. Specially designed for cleaning paint application equipment.

Polywipes : A dry wipe ideal for cleaning before critical operations. Particularly for abrasive surfaces (composites, tanks). 

  • FOD wipe (no release of fibres/particles)
  • knitted
  • highly resistant
  • reusable after washing (only for non-critical uses)
  • compatible with various solvents/water-based solutions. Ex: (SOCOCLEAN AQUAFORTE, DIESTONE R, DIESTONE A8284 and DIESTONE DLS)

Socowipes 21800 : Our latest wipe-off innovation. Combining performance, optimized cost and European manufacturing.

Focus on Socowipes 21800 wipes: AMS 3819 compliance at your fingertips

Among our PRI QPL and AMS 3819 certified aerospace wipes, the Socowipes 21800 is ideal for your "wipe off" applications. Engineered and manufactured in Europe, it offers an unbeatable cost-effectiveness without compromising the quality and compliance mandated by AMS 3819. Unlike often more expensive knitted wipes, the Socowipes 21800 range provides the best balance of performance and savings.

Socowipes 21800 are available in three packaging versions to best suit your needs:

  • Two flat-folded wipe boxes: The box prevents lint/fiber formation during use, and the folding allows for easy extraction.
  • Box containing a roll of pre-cut wipes: Dispensing from the center facilitates distribution, and the box protects the wipes from contaminants during use.
  • Pre-cut rolls packaged in twos, without cardboard protection: This is our most cost-effective format.

Zoom on AMS 3819 approval

AMS 3819 approval: How to get approved?

Achieving AMS 3819 approval is a rigorous process. It involves initial testing by an independent, accredited laboratory (such as PRI). Once approved, the wipe is listed on the PRI QPL-AMS3819.

However, testing doesn't stop there. To maintain this approval, "release tests" are performed on every product lot. This requirement ensures consistent quality and traceability, with proof of approval provided via the Certificate of Conformity (COC).

AMS 3819 certification vs Compliance: Stay vigilant

It's important to note that while some wipes may appear to be AMS 3819 approved, the reality is often different. Be wary of broad claims or overly generalized descriptions that group multiple product references under a single approval.

At Socomore, every product reference clearly states its status: either AMS 3819 approved and listed on the PRI QPL, or confirmed as compliant with AMS 3819 technical requirements by an external laboratory. 

Always verify the actual approval status of products used for your critical aerospace applications.
